Use Object Bar and create a taskbar without the tray.

So there is no way to do this with Desktop X unless i wanna build a whole new taskt bar?
ObjectDock - Access shortcuts and frequently used applications from an animated dock.

As I remember Object Bar will "Clone" any windowblind start menu & taskbar with very little user input. You may have to "remove" the tray. DX would require a whole new taskbar. Object DOCK will work without any taskbar, start menu or tray. That's what I use. I haven't used a taskbar in a very long time.

You can also go to toolbar properties and turn off the clock, then click customize and set all the tray items to always hide.

I've hear a few solutions . . just none you like so far.

ObjectBar
Objectdock
DX

All require you to hide the taskbar. OD+ may require a reinstall to get your plus and minus back (or make the bar longer).

Pick one
